Forklift Training Weekly Roundup

Weekly Forklift Training Updates: Counterbalance Conversions, PPT Courses & Order Picker Training

Last week’s forklift training updates at 4KS Forklift Training once again demonstrated the wide range of courses delivered across our Birmingham and Peterborough centres, as well as onsite client locations nationwide.

From Counterbalance refresher courses to PPT novice training and Order Picker programmes, demand remained strong across multiple sectors.

Birmingham Training Centre

Our Birmingham centre remained busy throughout the week with a varied schedule of RTITB accredited training.

Courses included:

  • Counterbalance Novice and Counterbalance Refresher training for candidates from the UK’s largest vehicle manufacturer, alongside private candidates
  • Counterbalance back-to-back conversions for private individuals
  • Combined Counterbalance & Reach Truck Novice courses
  • Bendi conversion training
  • Reach Truck back-to-back conversions over the weekend

This mix of novice, refresher and conversion courses highlights the continued demand for flexible forklift training options.


Onsite Training Across the UK

Our onsite instructors travelled to multiple client locations to deliver tailored training directly in the workplace.

This included:

  • PPT Novice training for cheese manufacturers in Nantwich
  • PPT Novice training for our bakery client in Leicester
  • Order Picker training for a logistics company in Derby

Onsite training remains a valuable solution for businesses wanting to upskill teams while reducing downtime.

Another strong week supporting both new and experienced operators.
